Handling of PTB Messages # # An application that is able and wishes to receive PTB messages MUST # perform ICMP validation as specified in Section 5.2 of [BCP145]. # This requires that the application checks each received PTB message # to validate that it was is received in response to transmitted # traffic and that the reported PL_PTB_SIZE is less than the current # probed size (see Section 4.6.2). A validated PTB message MAY be used # as input to the DPLPMTUD algorithm but MUST NOT be used directly to # set the PLPMTU.
